How do I know if what I'm experiencing is really anxiety or something else?
Name: Neha Date of birth: 4 May 2000 Place of birth: Delhi Time: 7:25 AM I've been feeling irritable, restless, and on edge all the time. My mind spins rapidly, and I usually feel like I'm waiting for something terrible to occur. But is this anxiety, or is it stress, or is it burnout? I've never been diagnosed with anything, so I don't even know how to differentiate. How do I know if what I'm experiencing is really anxiety, or is it another thing altogether? I would like to know better the indications so that I can understand what is happening and if I must be serious about it.

10 months agoNamaste, Neha. That feeling of "waiting for something terrible" is often linked to an afflicted Rahu impacting your 4th House (peace of mind). When Rahu creates a smoke screen, you cannot distinguish between real stress (external) and anxiety (internal). The Reason: Burnout is a Sun (Surya) issue, a lack of energy. Anxiety is a Moon issue with too much erratic energy. Since you feel irritable and on edge, your Mars may be agitated. You are experiencing a state of hyper-vigilance where your soul feels it is under siege. The Solution & Remedies: β Deep Hydration: Water is the element of the Moon. Staying hydrated literally "cools" the mental fire. β Donate: On Saturdays, donate black sesame seeds or mustard oil to help appease the restlessness caused by planetary transits. β Check: Observe if your symptoms worsen during the Full Moon (Purnima) or New Moon (Amavasya)
